    TIme + Tragedy = Comedy

    I waited 15 years. It gave me a chuckle, but I'm not sure it is comedy. Will check back in 2035.

    How Does POA Make Money?

    Typical trial lawyer pork. This is taxation without representation. I nominate EdFred to represent those of us amongst the great unwashed.

    Interesting Day, Had To Give CPR

    You are amazing. Being willing to act is what separates the 1% from the 99%. Knowing how to act separates the .1% from the 1%. Thanks for showing what people can do and what it means to be a good person. For those seeking training: if you can, seek out a local class that includes training...

    King Air crashes into building at Wichita

    I heard from him; he's safe. As Tony said, he's at the Beechcraft center. The Cessna center was the one impacted.

    If Airlines Sold Paint :D

    We have three main types of paint: luxury, classic, and standard. Each paint has a base price. If you want your paint today, for use today, it's going to cost some multiple of that base price. The multiple changes based on how much paint I have left. If I'm selling you my last can, the...

    Korean 777 Down in SFO

    Korean 777 Down in SFO

    Alan, how do you account for the nose gear trail left in the high res picture? It looks like the plane yawed ~30 degrees to the left, departed the runway, yawed back to centerline, and yawed another ~30-45 degrees to the right before coming to rest in the final position. Cheers.

    Korean 777 Down in SFO

    Eject: to throw out forcefully; to expel. Ejection is everyone talk for getting thrown out of something forcefully. Unless they walked under their own power from the plane and died spontaneously, eject would be the appropriate way to describe what happened here. Cheers.
